There isn't really that much to it. The basics are as follows: Pull the injector lines, and injectors to insure the tips don't get screwed up when the head is off the engine. As part of that step, don't forget to cap off where the lines connect to the pump at the other end. Next remove the valve cover to expose the valve train. Then remove the rocker arms and push rods. Finally remove anything else attached to the head. Once those things are done you should be able to loosen the head bolts and set the head off.
Like I said it's relatively simple to do. Like the man said about carving a monkey in a cage when asked, 'just cut away anything that doesn't look like a monjey in a cage.'. It might look a bit intimidating but, in this case, just remove anything that attaches the head to the block, and then remove the head.
The problem comes putting it back on because then you'll have to have the specs to torque all the bolts, as well as having to go back and reset rocker arm clearances on the valve train. Again, not that difficult to do, if you've got the specs. Good luck.
